use a leveraged etf like proshares.UPRO if you think the market is going up and SPXU if you think the market is going down. chances are your classmates will go broke trying to be the best "stockpicker".

I invested on wwe and that got me to the top 3

consider power companies (always need electric), consider "sin companies" (make cigs, and booze). they will always be around,

good luck

So at school I'm participating in a stock market simulation in one of my classes. We start with a bunch of fake money, then we buy imaginary stocks. The stock value will go up and down depending on the real life stocks. The team who has the most amount of money at the end of the simulation wins a cash prize of $100. I'd really like to win. So I was wondering if you could give me some suggestions on different companies in the stock market that my partner and I can fake buy in order to win?
